<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The physical education classroom can be a site of discomfort for young people who occupy marginalized identities, and a place where the normative beliefs and teaching practices of educators can act as a barrier to their inclusion. This timely edited collection challenges pre-service and in-service teachers to examine the pedagogical practices and assumptions that work to exclude students with intersecting and diverse identities from full participation in physical and health education.</br></br>The contributors to this volume-who consist of both experienced and emerging scholars from Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand-approach their topics from a range of social justice perspectives and interpretations. Covering a variety of areas including (dis)ability, gender, sexuality, race, social class, and religion, <em>Social Justice in Physical Education</em> promotes a broader understanding of the sociocultural, political, and institutional practices and assumptions that underlie current physical education teaching.</br></br>Each chapter encourages the creation of more culturally relevant and inclusive pedagogy, policy, and practice, and the discussion questions invite readers to engage in critical reflection. Mapping a better way forward for physical and health education, this text will be an invaluable resource for courses on social justice, diversity, inclusive education, and physical education pedagogy.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This outstanding text presents unique and dynamic interactions between social justice and critical pedagogy. It fills a scholarly void in physical education and teacher education for both graduate and undergraduate students, which involves educating pre-service and in-service teachers, parents, and students. The authors-researchers and experts from a variety of specializations-inform and educate, creating a stimulus for critical conversation and action that will result in positive change in school physical education and in the lives of our youth." - Nancy Melnychuk, PhD, Professor Emeritus (PETE), Faculty of Education, University of Alberta<br>
